Genshin Impact 3.1 Livestream: Expected date, upcoming characters, and everything to know

sportskeeda.com:

The most commonly speculated date for the Genshin Impact 3.1 Livestream is September 17, 2022. That's when HoYoverse will do a brief showcase at the Tokyo Game Show 2022. Ergo, it is logical that Travelers will get some news by then.

However, HoYoverse has yet to confirm any official details regarding the upcoming Special Program. Historically, these Special Programs have always aired 10 to 12 days before the following update launches. Travelers should know that Version 3.1 has been confirmed for September 28, 2022.

This means the expected date for the Genshin Impact 3.1 Livestream would fall between September 16-18, 2022.

The above tweet contains the official streaming timetable for the Tokyo Game Show 2022. The important part to look at here is that HoYoverse is booked for September 17, 2022, between 18:00 and 20:00 (JST). That's plenty of time for something to happen.

That September 17 date also aligns with the Special Program occurring 10 to 12 days before the next update. Hence, even if nothing is shown here, there is a strong possibility that Travelers will get the Special Program either the day before the Tokyo Game Show 2022 or the day after.

The above tweet confirmed the official release date of Version 3.1, as well as the release dates for Versions 3.2 and 3.3. Readers should know that the 3.1 release date is the most relevant part of this subject since subtracting 10 to 12 is what gave players the aforementioned September 16-18, 2022 estimate.

For reference, here are the number of days between the Special Program's date and the eventual update's release date for some of the past Version Updates:

Remember, Version 3.1 has been confirmed to launch on September 28, 2022.
